Prior to the release of this shoe, we shopped it with consumers in U.S. focus groups and 90 percent of the consumers hated the patent leather and told us to get rid of it. "The team" loved the patent and knew that it would make a statement in the industry. We stuck to our guns and today it has proven to be one of the most coveted Jordan silhouettes of all time. While the AJXI is my favorite shoe, I've had the pleasure of working on a ton of prototypes that have never come to market, hopefully the world will have an opportunity to experience them, should they ever make it out of the Jordan Vault: XIs, IVs, Vs, IIIs and XX3s that would blow your mind!
